Illinois Secretary of State Form DAH IH 75 — Attorney Information – Form DAH IH 75, officially titled Attorney Information, is an official document issued by the Illinois Secretary of State’s Department of Administrative Hearings. The current revision is DAH IH 75.8 (printed June 2026). It serves as the written notice of appearance when an attorney represents a petitioner in formal or informal administrative hearings involving driving privileges.
These hearings commonly address driver’s license suspensions, revocations, Restricted Driving Permits (RDPs), Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Device (BAIID) matters, and related issues under the Illinois Vehicle Code. The form collects essential contact and identification details for both the petitioner and the attorney of record.

Purpose of Form DAH IH 75
Under Illinois Administrative Code Title 92, Section 1001.40, any attorney appearing in a representative capacity before the Department of Administrative Hearings must file a written notice of appearance. Form DAH IH 75 fulfills this requirement by providing:
- Petitioner identification (name, Illinois driver’s license number, email, and signature)
- Attorney identification (name, address, phone, email, and ARDC number)
- Optional interpreter name
- Email authorization for electronic receipt of the final decision
The form also includes a notice authorizing the Department to send the final hearing decision electronically and advises petitioners to add official email addresses ([email protected] and [email protected]) to their trusted senders list to avoid spam filters.
Who Needs to Complete DAH IH 75?
This form is required when an Illinois-licensed attorney (or an attorney appearing pro hac vice under Supreme Court Rule 707) represents a petitioner in a Department of Administrative Hearings proceeding. Self-represented individuals do not need this form. Corporations and certain entities must appear through licensed counsel and therefore use the form when applicable.
It is commonly submitted alongside other hearing-related documents such as the Petition for a Restricted Driving Permit or Reinstatement (DAH IH 28), Formal Hearing Request, or supporting verification forms.
